Birth Matters Winchester holds meetings on the second Tuesday of each month. The meetings are held at Grace Evangelical Lutheral Church, 26 W Boscawen St in Old Town Winchester from 6:30 - 8pm. Our meetings are open to the public and children are welcome.

We hold that pregnancy is a normal, healthy life process that should be honored and respected. We dialogue about informed choices for birthing women and their families and seek to support each other in our childbearing years. We share our experiences, our resources, our birth stories, our hopes, our fears, our questions, our concerns, and our joys.

We have a library of books and videos that may be used by Birth Matters members. You may join on-line from our home page or at any of our meetings.

Please call Julie at 540-327-2012 for more information.
